Original Cast The Song That Goes Like This Lyrics

Galahad:
Once in every show
There comes a song like this
It starts off soft and low
And ends up with a kiss.
Oh where is the song
That goes like this?

(spoken) Where is it? Where? Where?

Lady of the Lake:
A sentimental song
That casts a magic spell.
They all will hum along
We'll overact like hell.
For this is the song that goes like this

Galahad: (spoken)
Yes it is

Lady: (spoken)
Yes it is

Galahad: (spoken)
Yes it is!

Lady: (spoken)
Yes it is!

Galahad:
Now we can go straight
Right down the middle eight
A bridge that is too far for me

Lady:
I'll sing it in your face
While we both embrace

Both:
And then
We change
The key-y

Galahad:
(in high falsetto)
Now we're into E!

(back to normal key) *cough*
That's awfully high for me

Lady:
But as everyone can see
We should have stayed in D

Both:
For this is our song that goes like this!

Galahad:
I'm feeling very proud

Lady:
You're singing far too loud

Galahad:
That's the way that this song goes

Lady:
You're standing on my toes

Both:
Singing our song that goes like this!

Lady:
I can't believe there's more

Galahad:
It's far too long, I'm sure.

Lady:
That's the trouble with this song
It goes on and on and on.

Both:
For this is our song that is too long!

[They strike poses as if the song is ending, but it instead enters the next musical bridge. They swear.]

Lady:
We'll be singing this 'til dawn

Galahad: (threatening the orchestra's conductor)
You'll wish that you weren't born.

Lady:
Let's stop this d___ refrain

Both:
Before we go insane
For our song always ends like thiiiiiiiiiiiis!
